Billy Strings has teamed up with Jack White-founded Third Man Records for a special limited edition vinyl release, Vault No. 66. Presented in collaboration with Reprise Records, the 66th installment of the Vault series will include a 20-track, 4LP live recording, Billy Strings Live in Rosemont, as well as the first-ever vinyl pressing of Strings’ self-titled debut EP, originally self-released in 2016.
Captured on May 25th, 2024, the first night of a two-night stand at Allstate Arena in Rosemont, IL, Billy Strings Live in Rosemont features a mix of fan-favorites, deep cuts, and traditional bluegrass covers, from originals like “Fire Line”, “Hellbender”, and “Home” to timeless standards like “John Hardy”, “Ruby”, and “Ridin’ That Midnight Train”. The setlist also included an original from Billy Failing, “So Many Miles”, featuring the banjoist on lead vocals, Strings’ solo takes on “Give The Fiddler A Dram”, “Whistling Rufus”, and “Ragtime Annie”, and a special guest appearance from his dad Terry Barber, who joined in at the end of the show for “Mother’s Not Dead”, “On The Southbound”, “Little Cabin Home On The Hill”.
